policy priorities, relationships between the two leaders may have gotten even worse. while the ploy has taken a toll on u.s.-israeli relations, it's caused a big turn-around for president obama. from the president's own party, senate republicans looked like they might have the votes to advance new sanctions on iran despite the administration's objections, that sanctions would jeopardize the ongoing nuclear talks. well, then john boehner and benjamin netanyahu entered the picture and tried to do an end run around the president, and now the whole thing has completely blown up in their faces. last week boehner announced he had invited netanyahu. he explained his rationale in an intervoo with "60 minutes." >> there's nobody in the world that can talk about the threat of radical terrorism, nobody can talk about the threat that the iranians pose, not just to the middle east and to israel, or longest ally, but the entire world than bb netanyahu. this problem is growing all over the world. the president is trying to act like it's not there. but it is there. and it's going to

he didn't have anything to do with it but hi foreign policy benefits tremendously. for years putin has wanted to see a nonunity disunity within the european union. he wants to deal with each individual country, not collectively. and he has for many years said this. i've heard him say this. so for their foreign policy objectives, this most certainly is a win. >> i wanted to ask you about the migrant crisis. look, everything -- this is a reminder that everything is connected. economic anxiety around the world coupled with a migrant crisis coupled with a decision about what to do with syria. it is all interconnected. but how much more pressure should this put on us as a superpower to do more about syria, considering that the migrant crisis did have an outsized impact on the brexit? >> it's a great point, chuck. i think there's sometimes a theory among foreign policy analysts that there are states and there are unitary actors and they behave rationally and there's a balance of power between them. the reality is exactly the opposite as we just saw tragically last night.
